here's the specific problem Thom.... if shredder is not the last of the three that you loaded, then you overworte a working GUI with something inadequate. when you get the system back, load shredder as the last of your fritz-based installs before you run the program and you will have no problems. eg, if install fritz8 after shredder8, then the system gets fouled. you need to do a few uninstalls. Do you understand how to use system restore (of the windows OS) incase this happens again? Symantec just purchased 'GoBack' from Roxio-- this product is pretty nifty too.
